Some good attention:

After a balmy early spring day here in North Dakotaland, we look forward to more nice weather and some harmless flurries today. Most of my archaeological friends are in Philadelphia at the Archaeological Institute of America/American Philological Association Annual Joint Meeting where it’ll almost reach 50! Here we’ll stay in the more polite (for the season) 30s. If you want to know how folks at the AIA/APA are holding up, follow them all through the Twitter hashtage #aia/apa. (And be sure to check out our panel and paper!)

So, despite the distracted and diminished potential readership, I offer some quick hits and varia (and a big catch up quick hits and varia, since I took last Friday off!).
